The Lord of Dreams by Clove Darkwave

The Lord of Dreams

Clove Darkwave

I urge you to re-read it at least once if not twice, as I feel this is one of those that merits such.

I'm actually quite pleased with how this one turned out, it evolved surprisingly far from what was three good sounding lines hastily scrawled down on a scrap of orange-colored paper. Each of the words was carefully picked to match up in a specific way, but it was an enjoyable exercise and the result is definitely pleasing.

It's awful Youtube sound quality, but I would love it if any reading this far gave it one last read while this tune played.

Cover artwork, which is most lovely, is entirely credited to sparkyopteryx

    Well, you certainly picked up on this LaTeX thing quickly.
    I would comment on the poem, but I'm always dismal at picking up meaning from poetry. It does have a nice spooky feel to it, though, and I like the repeating structure.

      Thank you for the kind words, they are appreciated. I like to imagine that when I want something bad enough I have the ability to reach it haha. I want to thank you again for showing it to me, being able to present my thoughts in a way that looks nice means an awful lot to me.

      You know, it doesn't matter what meaning is taken from it to me so much as it matters that someone read it and shared their thoughts with me. It pleases me to hear there was a quality to it that was liked, and so long as I entertained someone I consider it a success.
